The United Federation of Changjo is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Isak Valtersen with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 23.523 billion Changjoans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stoffels. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Changjoan economy, worth a remarkable 4,615 trillion Kroner a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 196,221 Kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Skateparks can be found in every city, female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast, escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, and Changjo is notorious for its citizens' infidelity. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Changjo's national animal is the Red Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lutheran.

Changjo is ranked 198,397th in the world and 3,624th in The North Pacific for Most Stationary, with 49.65794044112 days.
